A new update is available for Pokémon GO, which adds new features including a type-based capture bonus and improved Gym training. This update brings the game to version 0.41.2 in {{wp|iOS}} (labelled 1.11.2 on the {{wp|App Store (iOS)|App Store}}) and version 0.41.3 in {{wp|Android (operating system)|Android}}.

With this update, {{bp|Medal}}s for catching a number of Pokémon of a specific type now give the player a capture bonus for Pokémon of that type. Catching 10 Pokémon of a particular type gives that player a +1 capture bonus for that type; catching 50 of that type gives a +2 bonus; and catching 200 of that type gives a +3. Badges already earned provide capture bonuses immediately after updating. If a Pokémon has multiple types, the bonus will be the average of the bonuses for each type.

When training at a friendly {{bp|Gym (GO)|Gym}}, players can now bring six Pokémon (rather than just one), and the CP of the defending Pokémon may be temporarily lowered to make the training easier.

{{pkmn|Egg}} and Incubator screens will now periodically update the displayed distance walked. Previously, the player would need to close and re-open the screen to see the distance update.

The update also decreases the evolution animation time. Additionally, the updates fixes several audio issues and makes some minor fixes.
